Alchemy of Bodywork
An immersive training in structural anatomy, biomechanics, and hands-on techniques, designed for bodyworkers, movement professionals, and therapists who seek a deeper understanding of how the body stores and releases patterns.
This pathway blends science, intuition, and somatic awareness, allowing practitioners to develop an advanced skill set that integrates structural bodywork, energy release, and functional movement.

The Pathway Through the Body
Each training is centred on a key structural muscle and its deeper influence on posture, movement,
and emotional holding patterns, including:
✔ Psoas – The Bridge to Trust: Unlocking trauma and restoring core integrity.
✔ Adductors – Grounding Boundaries: Exploring the connection between stability, sexuality, and
self-protection.
✔ Scalenes – The Breath of Clarity: Freeing the neck to release stress and improve breath
mechanics.
✔ Piriformis – Releasing the Gateway of Flow: Addressing stored tension in the pelvis and
sacrum.
✔ Diaphragm – The Core of Vitality: Understanding breath’s role in nervous system regulation.
✔ Hamstrings – Threads of Flexibility and Forward Motion: Releasing stored tension that prevents
emotional and physical ease.
✔ Pec Minor – Opening the Shield of Vulnerability: Freeing the chest to open the heart and
dissolve protective patterns.
✔ Sartorius – The Line of Adaptability: Working with the body’s longest muscle to explore gait,
transition, and fluidity in movement.
✔ Glutes – The Power Centre: Exploring stability, propulsion, and the emotional landscape of
strength and drive.
✔ Erector Spinae – The Pillars of Strength: Restoring spinal integrity to support emotional
resilience and uprightness.
✔ Serratus Anterior – The Anchor of Breath and Strength: Understanding how breath mechanics
and scapular stability impact posture and expression.
✔ Rhomboids – Wings of Stability: Addressing patterns of holding, burden, and emotional support
through the back body.
✔ Rectus Femoris – The Bridge Between Power and Fluidity: Understanding the connection
between hip flexion, knee extension, and movement efficiency.
Each 5-day bodywork training is focused on one key muscle group, allowing for a deep dive into its
structure, function, and therapeutic applications.
Bliss Bodywork Online Mentorship: Deepening Your Practice
In addition to in-person bodywork trainings, Alchemy of Bodywork includes the Bliss Bodywork
Online Mentorship, an ongoing mentorship programme designed to help practitioners refine their
skills in muscle testing, assessment, and activation techniques.
What You Will Learn in the Mentorship
✔ Muscle Testing Techniques, including:
• Muscle Activation Technique (MAT) – Enhancing neuromuscular efficiency and
restoring functional movement.
• Applied Kinesiology – Assessing and correcting structural and energetic
imbalances.
• Orthopaedic Tests – Improving posture and gait analysis, identifying movement
dysfunctions.
✔ Practical Application of Bodywork Techniques, including:
• Understanding compensation patterns and how to release them.
• Fine-tuning palpation skills to assess restrictions in fascia, muscle, and joints.
• Integrating muscle testing with subtle energy work for a holistic approach.
✔ Self-Paced & Live Training Access, ensuring you:
• Can join anytime and attend live sessions or watch pre-recorded lessons at your
own pace.
• Have access to a structured library of bodywork sequences and technique
breakdowns.
• Receive guidance and mentorship for deeper understanding and application.
✔ Beyond Training: A Global Bodywork Community
• Connect with a worldwide network of bodyworkers, movement professionals, and
healers.
• Join the Jambo Dragon Directory of Bliss Bodywork Practitioners, allowing clients
and other professionals to search for and connect with you.
• Gain ongoing access to new material, case studies, and Q&A sessions for
continued learning.
